Frequently asked questions
Common questions about MAXX AIR from 3G Electric.
What voltage options are available for MAXX AIR industrial fans?
Most MAXX AIR industrial fans operate on 120V AC single-phase power. The compact fan model (SKU 43GL47) uses 5V DC via USB. No 208V, 240V, or three-phase models are listed in the current product range. For facilities requiring higher voltage or three-phase power, alternative brands may be necessary.
What is the maximum airflow from a MAXX AIR HVLS ceiling fan?
The MAXX AIR HVLS ceiling fan models with an 8-foot blade diameter (SKUs 43GK97 and 811RY8) deliver 13,000 cfm at 120V AC. This is suitable for open areas up to approximately 2,000 square feet, depending on ceiling height and obstructions. The fan offers 6 speeds for airflow adjustment.
Are MAXX AIR floor fans available in belt-drive or direct-drive configurations?
Yes. MAXX AIR floor fans are offered in both belt-drive and direct-drive versions. For example, the 36-inch model (SKU 811RY5) uses a 3/4 hp belt drive, while the 36-inch model (SKU 43GL44) uses a 1/2 hp direct drive. Belt-drive fans typically provide higher cfm at lower motor speeds, while direct-drive fans have fewer moving parts.
What mounting options are available for MAXX AIR wall-mount fans?
MAXX AIR wall-mount fans, such as the 18-inch model (SKU 43GL26), use a bracket mounting system for fixed installation. These units are non-oscillating and have 3 speeds. They are designed for permanent attachment to walls or structural columns, directing airflow horizontally across a defined area.
Can MAXX AIR fans be used in outdoor or wet environments?
The listed MAXX AIR fans are not specified with IP ratings or outdoor certifications. The polyethylene-housed models (e.g., SKU 811RY5) offer some corrosion resistance but are not rated for direct rain or washdown. For outdoor or wet locations, consult the manufacturer's specifications or select fans with explicit NEMA 3R or IP55 ratings.
What is the blade material on MAXX AIR office floor fans?
The MAXX AIR 20-inch office floor fan (SKU 43GL29) uses aluminum blades. This material provides lightweight operation and corrosion resistance compared to steel. Other models in the line use steel or polyethylene blades depending on the application.
